2、ion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification establishes the requirements for free-cutting bismuth brass rod, bar and wire of UNS Alloy No.C49250 and C492

3、60 suitable for high-speed screw machinework, or for general applications.1.2 Typically, product made to this specification is furnishedas straight lengths, or coils when requested.1.3 UnitsThe values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. Thevalues

4、stated in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other.Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with it

5、s use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
